About Wave Rave Snowboard Shop
Wave Rave is Mammoth Lakes' original snowboard shop, founded in the early days of the snowboarding movement and still thriving as one of the town's most iconic gear destinations. Located on Main Street in the heart of Mammoth's commercial district, the shop stocks one of the largest selections of snowboards, bindings, and boots in the Eastern Sierra, with demo and rental options that let visitors test premium setups before buying. The staff are lifelong riders who compete locally and can match any customer with the right board for their style and ability.
The rental program spans everything from beginner packages with soft, forgiving boards to high-performance setups featuring the latest models from Burton, Lib Tech, Jones, and GNU. Season-long rentals are popular with locals and second-homeowners, while daily and multi-day rates cater to visitors. The in-house tuning shop handles waxing, edge sharpening, and binding adjustments, keeping every rental board in peak condition throughout Mammoth's famously long season.
Beyond snowboards, Wave Rave carries a curated selection of outerwear, goggles, helmets, and accessories from brands that resonate with the snowboard community. The shop's vibe is casual and welcoming — no hard sells, just honest advice from people who ride every day. Their Main Street location puts them within walking distance of the Village gondola, restaurants, and the free town shuttle, making it easy to pick up gear and be on the mountain within minutes.
